The Plan, Part II (Because You All Thought I Had Forgotten)

As Europe develops their reserves of shale gas (which we refuse to allow forcing drilling to go thousands of feet deep like oh, say, certain BP rigs, thanks, environmentalists!) and begs Russia to remain invested in the Euro, a thought occurs to me. OK, two thoughts. The first is: Dear, God, the last thing the world needs is an increasingly anti-American Europe and a Russia falling faster and faster into a modified despotism similar to its former Soviet ways with an American President who is an apologist and has all the spine of an earth worm with regard to foreign policy. The second thought is: it seems that every nation that currently remains prosperous has little or no restrictions on the use of its own natural resources, specifically oil. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (D. should be federal prison) recently complained that rich people, who pay roughly 90% of the federal tax burden, don't pay their fair share (the comments to the article on Politico, which is a pretty middle of the road site, are just about universally critical of her position), citing Brazil as having a high tax burden and prosperous economy. This is the same Brazil that the current administration threw $2 billion dollars to develop their oil drilling prospects. The corporate recipient, Petrobas, is, not suprisingly, partially owned by George Soros, or as he is known amongst superheros, Captain Evil Douchebag. From the dates of the announcements, it appears Soros bought in just a few short days before the administration announced the investment. Did I just stumble across another criminal act of the administration? Brazil is a large energy exporter due to its development of oil. Russia is prospering, at least in some manner, from its energy exports. The middle east has no idea there is a recession, except for Dubai and it's tourist industry. And so I say drill, baby, drill.

It's a Conspiracy of Physics

The John Stossel article on this is definitely worth reading.

This is Scary

David Horowitz, an original member of the "New Left" movement and son to two communist parents who eventually rejected radicalism to become a conservative, writes and speaks about Muslim organizations spreading hatred on college campuses. Horowitz was speaking at University of California San Diego when a student speaking flawless English, likely raised in the United States, dressed in traditional Islamic garb, had this exchange with Horowitz (note to Don, it helps to watch the video). It is chilling to hear her lean forward and very deliberately say "for it."

An Absolute Must Read

Anita Moncrief, a former ACORN insider, wrote this essay on President Obama, ACORN and stealth socialism. It is, as noted in the title, an absolute must read.

Update on Our Infant Emperor

It looks like the press agrees with me. Human Events editor John Gizi details press complaints about the "juvenile" President in this article. Of course, one of the complaints is an "Obama want a cracker" moment as he, too, blamed the Bush admistration for the BP oil spill. I can just see President Obama doing a Viagra ad in 20 years talking about how President Bush caused his erectile dysfunction.

And Democrats Gave This a Standing Ovation

When Mexican President Felipe Calderon addressed Congress and whined about Arizona's new anti-illegal immigration law, most Democrats stood and applauded, presumably because they feel a foreign head of state whose country directly benefits from billions of dollars sent back across the border by illegals, has a more valid opinion on the matter than the approximately 70% of Arizonans who favor the law (not to mention the over 6 in 10 Americans who view the law and its specific aspects favorably). But then, hey, when has this Congress ever bothered with what the public thinks.

Earlier this week in what was a bald-faced PR move with absolutely no real efffect or intention, President Obama announced he was sending 1,200 National Guard troops to the border..............to do paperwork and absolutely, positively not enforce immigration law. This non-move by the President was met with the type of derision appropriate for moronic measures. The Mexican government advised its people that they should continue to feel free to roam on across the border as the troops are not there to enforce immigration laws. This is how little respect Mexico has for both the President and the border.

Pelosi Want a Cracker?

Another Democratic parrot has squawked the company line. This time House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D. Cal.) piped up to blame the Bush administration for the BP oil spill. How anyone takes this woman seriously is beyond my comprehension.
